If it is, I'd stay on standard shocks/springs. Those kits are flipping dangerous!
Yeah, thats the exact kit.
It was in the boot when I got the car

Got it for £800
Had a few problems though.
Massive missfire 3 days after I bought it.
It seems to be leaking oil out of the cam at the back (is it the vtec valve??)
And found out why it smells of petrol too. The fuel lines just above the rear axel are realy corroded and weeping just as it bends to go up to the top of the tank

So all in all Im not the happiest bunny at the mo :(
